Winter is a beautiful season — but your skin definitely feels the impact.
Cold winds, dry indoor heat, and low humidity work together to strip moisture from the skin, leaving it dull, flaky, itchy, and rough.
The real secret to keeping your glow this time of year?
Exfoliation.
Consistent, gentle, botanical exfoliation.
When you incorporate an emulsified sugar scrub into your winter routine, you reveal fresh, smooth skin, enhance hydration, and help your moisturizers work twice as effectively. It’s not optional in the winter… it’s essential.
Let’s break down why.
Why Exfoliating Is Essential During Winter
1. Removes Dry, Built-Up Winter Skin
Cold weather slows your skin’s natural cellular turnover, causing dead skin cells to accumulate faster. This buildup leads to:
- Flakiness
- Rough texture
- Dullness
- Ashiness
Exfoliation instantly restores:
✅ radiance
✅ smoothness
✅ brightness
✅ softness
It’s the quickest way to revive tired winter skin.
2. Helps Moisturizers Absorb Better
Your whipped herbal body butters are powerful — but they can only do their job if they can reach the fresh skin underneath.
Exfoliating first:
- Removes the dead skin barrier
- Allows deeper penetration
- Maximizes hydration
- Reduces tightness and itchiness
- Gives longer-lasting moisture
It’s your “unlock and absorb” step.
3. Prevents Winter Bumps, Rough Patches & Congestion
Without exfoliating, winter dryness often causes:
- Keratosis pilaris to flare
- Rough elbows and knees
- Back/arm bumps
- Ingrown hairs
Gentle exfoliation keeps the skin smooth, refined, and balanced.
4. Boosts Circulation for a Brighter Glow
The massaging action of exfoliating boosts micro-circulation, which:
- Improves tone
- Supports healthy cell renewal
- Wakes up dull skin
- Brings life back to your complexion
It literally brings your glow back from winter hibernation.
Why Herbs and Mylk Emulsified Sugar Scrubs Are Superior
Not all scrubs are the same — and emulsified scrubs change the entire experience.
1. They Turn Into a Creamy, Lotion-Like Rinse
Emulsified = skincare gold.
When water touches the scrub, it transforms from a buffing sugar polish into a silky, hydrating cleanser.
This means:
- No greasy/oily residue
- No slippery shower floor
- No sticky feel
- Just hydrated, polished, velvety skin
It’s luxury in action.
2. Made With Clean, Nourishing Oils & Clays
Our scrubs are crafted with:
- Organic cane sugar
- Organic coconut oil
- Olive oil
- Ocean blue clay (for soothing detox benefits)
- Plant-based emulsifying wax
This is exfoliation and hydration happening simultaneously.
3. Perfect Buffing Texture
The sugar granules are balanced — never irritating, never too fine.
Just enough exfoliating power to smooth without stripping.

How to Properly Use an Emulsified Sugar Scrub
For best results, follow the correct Herb and Mylk exfoliation ritual:
✅
Step 1: Exfoliate FIRST when you get into the shower
Do not wash first.
Do not use the scrub after your soap.
Exfoliating before cleansing ensures the sugar actually does its job.
Apply your scrub to dry or slightly damp skin for the best buffing action.
✅
Step 2: Massage gently in circular motions
Focus on:
- Legs
- Arms
- Chest
- Shoulders
- Back
- Elbows
- Knees
You’ll feel it melt into a silky, lotion-like texture — that’s the emulsification.
✅
Step 3: THEN wash it off with your favorite Herbs and Mylk bar soap
Grab your:
- Washcloth
- Loofah
- Exfoliating mitt
Lather your bar soap (Winter Solstice, Narnia, Juniper Frost, Rosemary Eucalyptus Rhubarb, or Blueberry Thyme) and wash the scrub off with the soap.
This step:
- Removes excess dead skin
- Cleanses thoroughly
- Leaves your skin unbelievably smooth
✅
Step 4: Rinse — your skin will feel like velvet
✅
Step 5: Seal in hydration with Whipped Herbal Body Butter
Your skin is warm, fresh, and exfoliated — the perfect moment for deep moisture.
Matching butters enhance:
- Hydration
- Softness
- Scent longevity
- Skin barrier support
This is the glow-maker.
